Super Toddler Pancakes and a Super Short Core Workout

Um, yes, Thanksgiving is less than a week away. I’m just not okay with that. As usual I have a million things I feel like I need to do before the holiday gets here. Eek.

This time of year is difficult. It’s dark earlier, there are a million things to do for the upcoming holidays, it’s cold outside, everyone seems to be getting sick, there’s lots of food everywhere…. you know, the list goes on.

Well, I feel like it’s really important to make sure to keep health a priority, especially this time of year. Sure it’d be great to sit in sweats and eat a whole bag of chips, but let’s just not do that this year, okay?

Here’s how we made them. We took Coach’s Oats multigrain pancake mix and followed the directions on the bag. We blended the spinach with the egg and the water that went into the mix before combining (in the Magic Bullet).

Then we added a serving of GNC SuperFoods Whole Foods Blend to the mix. We usually use it in drinks, but we thought we’d give it a go in our special “super” pancakes.

That was a really great idea.

Yep, the pancakes were marvelous. They had a wonderful berry flavor and smell and were hit.

You know what else was a hit just yesterday?

This super short three minute core workout.

Three minutes. Three moves.

Super.

Ready to try it with us?

Sure you are.

Don’t mind the mess or the toddler commotion. I do what I can around here and I’m just hoping some of you can relate. Ha ha.

I also hope you can find three minutes somewhere this weekend to do this. No equipment necessary, just a smile and a desire for a stronger core.

You know you want to do this three minute workout with us! 🙂

Okay, friends, have a wonderful Friday. I’d love to stay and chat, but I’ve got a special “date” I’ve got to get ready for. Stay tuned. He he.

Love the video! So glad to know that I’m not the only one that has to deal with stuff like that! I’m gonna try that out right now! Wish me luck! Core has never been an easy thing for me but I’m getting there!

I worked out with Bob this morning! Holy moly did that video kick my butt! LOVED every second of it too! Have fun my friend! Good luck getting things ready for the holidays. I’m no where close to ready, but I’m still excited!

I’ve been experimenting with squash lately, too. Last night I roasted delicata squash and it was delicious. Next up, I’ll be making kabocha squash. Love the video and I can definitely relate to the commotion! Have fun on that special date with {Bob?}!

I’m guessing it is a workout with Bob! If it is I hope you ENJOY every second! Did you use 1/2 of a spaghetti squash for that breakfast? Have a wonderful weekend and I’m sure we’ll be talking before gobble gobble. 🙂

Too funny that my twin boys have those exact same blue and red giant toy balls!!! Love them because they are the same (so no fighting! Well…less fighting anyway) yet different (so we’re not trying to guess whose ball is whose!) Haha! And I get the plastic bat to the head anytime I am on the floor too. Glad to know it isn’t just around here.

Welcome!
